Manage permissions for events and reference data

You can manage permissions to view and edit events and reference data using authorization tags. Each event and reference data item contains a list of authorization tags. By controlling access to the authorization tags, you can manage permissions to events in bulk without modifying the permissions to each individual event.

You grant permissions to authorization tags based on user roles. A user can access events or reference data items for all the authorization tags to which their user role has access. If a user has multiple roles, access for each role is independent.

You can configure each Event Type and Reference Data Type with a default authorization tag that applies to every event or reference data item of that type.

The BaseAuthorizationTag is a special authorization tag that applies to all events and reference data and can override other authorization tags. Assigning permissions to the BaseAuthorizationTag can be used to give a role read access to all events and reference data or to provide admin-level access.
